Report
Well, I got my report yesterday morning. In the mail. I went to get the letters in the morning hoping to see something from australian credit union and all I found was a letter from my school. There were a few other letters there, so instead of me opening it, I put it at the bottom of the pile and put them on the table. I didn't really want to look at the report, so I was just going to wait until mum went to work so I could open it. Well, it didn't work out that way now did it? When she left, I went over to the table and I found the thing missing. What the fuck. Well crap I thought, she has taken it to work so she could open it and fester (I suppose, can one fester over something so little?) over the report and find something to say when she got home. Honestly, I was expecting to fail at least 2 classes, just pass math and pass the other three classes with little trouble. Well, I was right about english, legal and history, as I got a 16/20 for each class. Which, compared to the first semester report is an improvement. You see, I like those classes. Now math I knew I was going to get an 11/20, which, is probably above average for what others got in the class (other than the ones that studied). Chemistry and biology were always going to be grey areas for my report. Well surprise, surprise I passed them, only just though. Amazing. Either I had done really well in the chemistry test as I had failed (only just though) every other test throughout the semester. And well, biology was just getting boring.
I know the reactions for my parents off the back of my hand, and yesterday was no exception. It goes something like, they read the report, decide on what to say in "private" (which normally consists of them outside on the verandah or something similar), while I'm inside watching tv. Then they walk in with the stern look on their faces and they sit down opposite to where I'm sitting. Blah blah blah, they give me the report to look over and then they delve into the whole "it's a good report, but I'm sure you can do better" lecture. It wasn't as long today, it might have been the fact that for half of my report were high B's. Then dad had the balls to say that I can do better in all of my subjects. Fair enough to say, I did only just pass three subjects, but instead of saying all of the subjects, maybe only say that I should do better in the ones I kind of only passed? Normally I'd just look at him and ignore it, but I kind of "snapped". He was saying that I'm only just scraping through some classes, and I said something like "Only just passing the hardest classes I take?" Well, it shut him up.
I swear, the moment the lights are turned off, or at least when it gets dark all the bugs decide that they want to start humping my monitor. Instead of humping the parts where the is black, or the picture isn't there, they decide to start humping IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SCREEN. So all I'd see is a giant (well, not really giant, but when the screen is white and the bug is black, it stands out) bug in the screen. Not wanting to squish it otherwise there will be bug gizzards on the screen, I try to flick it away. And all it does, it do a 180° turn and manage to get itself back in the middle of the screen. GRR. It's back. Someone kill it for me. Wait.. it flew away. ARGHHHH, IT'S ATTACKING MY FACE. WHAT THE FUCK BUG. Well, it seems that fiasco has finally ended. Yup, I've squished it on my face. So now all I have to do is get bug guts off my face now, at least it isn't in my view.
I'm so ashamed of myself, I've managed to nearly finish half life 2. And I've only had it for.. 17 days (or around that). Whyyyy. I've still yet to finish the first game, and I've nearly finished the second one? Damnit. I'm not going to be able to prolong the last 2 chapters anymore. Even hard isn't hard anymore. Maybe, I could stop playing the second one and play the first one again. Who knows, I just hope that I won't end up finishing this one before christmas. Honestly, I think I might. Hopefully I won't.
In the mean time, I've been talking with Zack about buying some hosting. Hopefully by this afternoon when the mail comes, I should be able to get access to my money over the internet. So do I go and buy a new domain name (I have no idea what to buy, someone suggest an idea and a name for me to buy) and some hosting or just a domain. I probably won't buy it straight away, but I've been meaning to since I had my account.
Well, I might go and sleep so I can watch the spongebob movie later on today.
